thumb|Raspberry Pi Compute Module 3+, a computer-on-module, which offers a quad-core CPU, 1GB RAM, and up to 32GB of EMMC|flash storage in the compact [[SO-DIMM form factor used for RAM modules on laptops.]] A computer-on-module (COM) is a type of single-board computer (SBC), a subtype of an embedded computer system. An extension of the concept of system on chip (SoC) and system in package (SiP), COM lies between a full-up computer and a microcontroller in nature. It is very similar to a system on module (SOM).

== Design == COMs are complete embedded computers built on a single circuit board. The design is centered on a microprocessor with RAM, input/output controllers and all other features needed to be a functional computer on the one board. However, unlike a single-board computer, the COM usually lacks the standard connectors for any input/output peripherals to be attached directly to the board.
